Osvald knew that he had to go all out.
He couldn't afford to hold back anymore. Even after using several key items and nearly exhausting his nodes, he hadn't truly gone all out yet. There were still some things that he could do...
But such things required sacrifices.
They required him… to put his life on the line. And for someone like him, this was asking for a lot.
However, he knew he didn't have the luxury of holding back.
Feeling the Butcher's gaze as it lifted its hand to strike, the hair on Osvald's body stood on end.
Reaching into his pocket, his nodes churned faster and faster. Far faster than anything he was used to.
"⎯⎯!"
Almost immediately, a terrifying pain struck him, so intense it felt like his head was being split apart, like a sledgehammer crashing down against his skull.
Almost instinctively, his left eye twitched.
The Butcher's movements were slow as it raised its hand to strike, yet in Osvald's eyes, they felt incredibly fast.
Crack!
